We tested many rim tapes and some worked, others didn’t. So in true TY style we went looking for alternatives.
Gorilla Tape has been used for years by bike mechanics the world over. It is also recommended as the best rim tape by several high end wheel manufacturers.

Gorilla Tape is not just a “gaffa tape”. It is thicker and stronger, has more layers, is very sticky, slightly flexible & stretchy - making it perfect to tape and seal rims.
The 9.14m x 25mm “Handy Roll” is good for up to four 650b rims.*
The 32m x 48mm “Lasts Forever Roll” can be split in half, so is good for twenty eight 650b rims, or it can be cut to any width to fit wider or plus sized rims.
How to tape bike rims?
Our “Top Tips and How To Do It ” section will be coming soon, but in the meantime have a look at this brilliant Pink Bike article.
NB:- They say to apply tape edge to edge, we use the tape at 24-25 mm wide and just tape the centre of the rim.
*If you are using the “Handy Roll” to tape 4 rims then be very careful how much you over lap at the valve hole. If in doubt buy a 2nd roll or buy the larger “Lasts Forever” roll.
*Do not overstretch the tape as it does have memory so will recall which may break the airtight seal.
